Control measures to forestall these
n intcr feeding difficulties are as
follows: Use a variety of feeds in the
ration including milk or tankage;

in .small quantities; do not feed too
heavily; allow young animals to ex-

a way 'that the consenter will be able

enabled to obtain the higher price.

this theory, "The identilfication of 'top

MUSSOLINI AND
WORLD PROBLEMS
I shald tell you something of my
various conversations with 'Premier
Mussolini including those that took
place during .a recent visit to Italy,
giving you his answers to certain of
my questions, among theta, 'how he
would solve the world problems; what
has been wrong with capital, and
what changes should be made in the
capitalistic system; what part he
thinks goverit'nten't should play in
business; what should be done with
bankers; what ,,Mussolini wants for
Italy in the 'future and 'what he thinks
about the future o'f the world and
the possibility of world peace, espec-
ially in sela'tion to the 'Mussolini 'Four
Power Peace Pact, He answers to
Power ',Peace Pact.
The various statements made by
Mussolini .are becoming more inter-
esting each day in the light of world
developments, for many of the points
that 111 'Duce insisted upon are pre-
cisely 'those that we now hear ad-
vocated all about us. The three prin-
ciples which the Italian Premier de-
fined in these conversations as being
necessary for the solution of world
problems are; Co-operation, co-ordin-
ation and the direction of energy, prin-
ciples which have 'become the 'thence
of all international discussions. Mus-
solini laid the greatest emphasis on
co-operation,
When I asked hint what he believed
would be the chief -characteristic of
the new era, his answer was: "Co-
operation ! Co-operation 'tvithiat each
nation and between all nations. That
is the next. stage, of evolutionary de-
velopment that the world is entering,
that it must enter in order to survive.
Co-operation is the secret of man's
well being on earth."
I cannot take the time to go into
details as to how 'Mussolini would
solve world problems, but •I can give
you his genre" statement.
"We must consider the world as a
unit and its problems must be met
with :a sense of world unity, world
co-operation and Management not
heretofore sufficiently precept in in-
ternational 'parleys. The world prob-
lems' must be solved with simplicity,
honesty and decision—with spiritual-
ity instead of materialism. And these
problems must be met with the view-
point of tomorrow."
This last sentence is characteristic
of Mussolini, for he has said that he
is always more 'homesick for the
future than he is for the past. Char-
acteristic too, is his emphasis" on spir-
ituality. For modern Ttaly, Nandi
capped as always 'by the lack of ma-
terial resources, has conserved and
cultivated her spiritual resources and
put of the spirit: is building en iii
dostrial system adequate to modern
needs.
'One would expect Mussolini to in-
sist upon co -:operation, since• co-opera-
tion is the principle for which he led
the march on ,Roost ten years ago, and
the. principle on which he, as the
leader of the ;Italian people, has 'based
the reorganization of the Italian state.
His government gives witness to the
prisiciple in its very name, for it is
called the Corporative 'State. It is
a government ;both of co-operation
and corporation. Tit cel' it may be
:Honed as, a government of co-operat-
ing corporations. Today the Italian
corporations comprise employees as
weal as employers, and they take. in
every branch of 'productive activity
including the intellectual's. It is aro

Eo W. Beatty Believes
Reviewing Canadian business
conditions of the past year and at
the same time looking forward to
the prospects for 11)34, E. W.
Beatty, Chairman and President
or the Canadlan Pacific Railway,
thinks the country is on the way
back to prosperity, although the
way may be long, and at times
difficult. In a statement published
in the "Montreal Stet" ho says:—
" Of 1933 I
think it is pet' -
haps with re-
lief that most
of us will say
—that's t ha t,
and now for
1934. We meet
this New Year
with something
of a better un-
derstanding or.
what this so-
called depres-
sion is all
about and what
we ought to do
about it. We see along the road
leading to its end more clearly
and further than we did a year
ago. That fact has inspired con-
fidence and courage and has
started us moving towards the
bettor times that broadened pros-
perity will bring to all. The road
is not an easy one; there are long
hills and difficult spots, but it
°flare no danger or problem too
great to be surmounted by the
courage and energy of the Cana-
dian people. We have before us
problems that will tax the ingenu-
ity and strength ofourleaders in
statescralt, finance and industry
and make great demands upon the
patience and understanding of our
people, but if these problems are
met with courage and dealt with
in accordance with the laws of
sound economics which are as re-
lentlessly unchangeable as the
laws of nature, this country will
emerge from the purging in far
bettor shape to progress than it
has over been before, and indivi-
dual prosperity for all classes of
our people will be more firmly
established. I believe that the
elusive corner we were hoping to
turn through many weary months,
slipped past es all unnoticed some
time ago, and that we have defin-
itely passed through the worst
and most trying phase of the
period.
Railroad Situation.
E. W. Beatty, It.C.
"The past year has been par-
ticularly difficult for our -rail-
roads and there seems little:rea-
son to hope that condil:lons are
going to be much easier for those
who operate thein in the imme-
diate cr near future, Alteration
in Canada's etatus from the posi-
tion we used to claim as the
world's chief producer of bread -
stuffs bas already proved far-
reaching in its adverse effect u"on
our transportation industry. Un-
der most favorable circumstances
governing development of other
lines of tiericuttural production for
export, it may reasonably take
some years to bring the volume of
Canada's rail freight back to the
high figures of a few years ago.
It is therefore imperative upon the
managements of those railways
depending upon earnings to meet.
operating costs, interest and other
charges that all possible measures
of economy in operation shall con-
tinue in force. But when this is
accomplished the problem for
Canada is far from solved.
Nast Reduce 'lases.
"All that is true of the railways
is true in some respect of most
other public facilities, and such
progress as has been made over
the past year along the line of
al'tecting economies in adminis-
tration of public affairs has been
helpful, but has served mostly to
point the way to larger and more
fundamental re- arrangements
looking towards an easing of the
great load of national debt, and a
reduction of taxation the extent
of which has come to assume
ominous proportions, There is
no need for further stressing the
inescapable necessity for such ac-
tion. I do not believe that any
thinking Canadian viewing nation-
al affairs without prejudice, wlll
deny that the drain upon public
and individual wealth consequent
upon the general railway situa-
tion continues to over -shadow all
other problems, and it is by far
the most important difficulty tbat
has to be surmounted before the
way to prosperity lies open before
us.
The Remenly.
In order to clarify the situation
early in the year, I outlined 1n two
public addresses what I believed
to be the only possible solution
for that problem. In effect, I
proposed that the people of Can-
ada as owners of the Canadian Na-
tional Railway should enter into
a partnership arrangement with
the shareholders of the Canadian
Pacific, and that the resulting' or-
ganization should be operated by
the privately owned concern, thus
relieving railroad management in
this country from the too -well
proven evils of political influences
and at •tate same time removing
from the path of our greatly har-
rassod political leaders the em-
barrassments that must ever ac-
company responsibility for rail-
way operation. tlfy proposals at
that time met with a volume of
approval and support such as,
frankly, I had not anticipated, and
I found even in places where it
was least to bo expected that they
received a serious consideration
that showed how widespread was
the conviction that this problem
had to be settled in some satisfac-
tory and permanent manner,
Nothing that has since happened
has tended to change my convic-
tion that in these proposals lies
the only sound ultimate solution
of the difficulty. I can think of
nothing short of this that may
be a.tternnted that will offer ade-
nunte relief from an economic
drain that has in it all the possi-
bilities of national disaster. I
have reason to believe, also, that
I share this conviction with e
lame and increasing, number of
citizens who are giving thought to
the state of real economic peril in
which we stand."
ran Congress but instead these indust -
Nal and intellectual corporations. Thus
the great currents of industry find di-
rect representation in the government.
In the 'Italian Congress, as in the na-
tional life, these separate corporations
are co-ordinated into one great cor-
poration which is Italy, acting never
for the welfare of any one class, hitt
always for the welfare of the entire
body of its producing citizens, who
arc really its share -holders.
One of these corporations is that of
banking. You may be interested in
Mussolini's answer to my question,
"What should be clone with bankers?"
He said, "I can only answer by telling
you what we have done in Italy. Here
we have incorporated them into the
state along with the farmers, the in-
dustrialists, the merchants and. the
professors, and we have provided by
law that their activities, like those of
all other citizens, should never be
detrimental to the welfare of the
state. That is, they should be free to
act along any lines they sec fit as
long as their activities are not damag-
ing to the public welfare."
IBanking activities end all other ac-
tivities, Mussolini feels, should he
under.the guardianship of the govern-
ment, 'but never to a degree to ham-
per ,private initiative. In other words
it is his idea that government must
remain aloof from private industry as
long as private industry is able to
take 'care of itself. If, however, the
tnanegement of some industries is in-
competent and imperils the welfare of
the people, then the state must inter-
vene. ,Mussolini 'holds that in their
own interest 'banks and other citi-
zens must think first of the welfare of
the entire nation a sa ',prerequisite of
their own prosperity.
And now let us consider the .Mus-
solini Foos Power 'Peace Pact and
the Italian leader's feeling about
world ' peace. Here we 'find- that sure
principle' of co-operation, which means
also conciliation. Mussolini's policy in
Europe as in Italy conciliates instead
of separates. The IPac't unites IF'rance,'

!Because of the widely varying opin-
ions on the subject, I wanted to char
from the Italian leader himself what
he thought about peace and what in
his view was the possibility of. world
peace and how to attain it. Being an
Italian and therefore a realist, 'Mus-
solini is skeptical about a permanent
world peace, but this is what he said
to ale: "As far as peace depends on
1110, it is secure. It will never be Italy
that will disturb the peace of the
peace of the world, never. We want
peace; for we have plenty to do in
Italy. We are concentrated in a great
constructive labor to improve the liv-
ing conditions, both material and
spiritual, of the Italian people. Our
militarism is purely of self defense
and we will never fire the first shot."
Knowing that 'I would publish some
of our interviews he added for em-
phasis, "You may write that on every
wall if you likel 'As as man of poli-
tics S shall' work for the longest per-
iod of peace possible."
II asked, "How shall we obtain it?"
'Here is Mussolini's answer:
"The way to get peace is to disarm.
The disarmament conferences mast
avoid leading to armament. If, for ex-
ample—the coining conference decides
to allow Germany to arnt equally with
other .nations instead of insisting that
other nations disarm down to Ger-
man's level, the conference will have
led to armament instead of to dis-
armament."
Turning to another major question
that is troubling world peace, I asked
"What is wrong with capital today?
How must it transfot•tn itself "
'Mussolini's answer came as usual
without •hesitation: "Capital crust be
made alt. instrument ---n0' t divinity.
It must return' tohnmas proportions.
The difficulty has been that capital-
ism has become 1 these times too
colossal.. for the control of man: In
capitalism, as in alt 'Arabian. Night's
Tate, man has evoked a ph'antau,p
that 'he bias been unable to get back
into 115 'bottle."
At the end of one of our conversa-
tions II asked the JPremier questions
about himself. First, whetheror not
he planned to come to America. His
answer did not surprise me, 'foe he had
',.told me years ago of his enthusiasm
for Ameria'c. "I do not exclude the
possi'bili'ty, of a visit to America," he
said, bttt he added in perfect sincer-

answer to my question, what was the

"DEVILFISH"
Recent newspaper despatches • tell-
ing of the chance capture of a big
octopus in Newfoundland waters, af-
ter a fast and furious battle, must had
some special interest for British fish-
ermen, since octopus, or octopi if
you prefer, are taken. commercially
off the Pacific coast. The catch is
never large and only incidenta 1 to

IIt may be, naturally enough, that
most 'Canadians do not know very
much about the octopus of the Paci-
fic coast and there's another fish
found in the Dominion with which
they may not be familiar. This latter
chap is the fish called "Inconnu," or,
